Hello to all, I have a problem I can not solve, I created some cities in Italy by changing the base map and eliminating all part of Europe from Switzerland high up, I saved everything with the name europe.mdb, I created files data_editor, manifest , desciption etc.
I want to connect my map with the map MHA but in tests I do when active maps even if I change the priorities they overlap each other instead of connecting what is wrong?

Everything works I have no error.

Sorry for my bad English :)

Here's what happens ...
Priority maps: RUS Map, ITALY Map Pro, MHA

Have you deleted the content of the sectors in your map or the sector files themselves? If you did the first thing, then you map will remain empty and conflicted.

So I can not delete the content in the map because it stays empty, how can I go to connect my map to another map?
What I do? What is correct procedure?

The correct procedure is only to add the sectors you edited in your mod package. My suspicion is that you added ALL sectors in your mod, and not just the ones you edited.

And make sure your map loads after MHA map.

In your mods add some zzzz to the beginning so it loads last in the map editor.
In the Mod Manager for your profile put it higher up the list than MHA map.

Also make sure MHA map is in your mod folder while you are editing your map, because if HeavyAlex edited the surrounding sectors, than your connections might not be compatible anymore.
